Mc-101 Aira Dj Groovebox - Pocket Production Studio, A Portable, Compact Four-Track Version

This is my first groove box and an introduction to making music. At first, the functions seem very intimidating..the detailed manual must be downloaded and there are over 52 pages of all the built in sounds that come with this piece of kit. Having had it for a few weeks now, I have learnt mostly by just literally messing around with it. A very powerful groove box, with endless functions and best of all, you feel like a professional once you master the basics. Highly recommended, but patience is required.

I love the fact that you all several thousand sounds (around 3000 I think) the same as the more expensive MC707 (which I also own). I bought this to make music on my way to work. It’s nice to make music not using a laptop. It’s got 4 tracks and it recently has had a software update which has added several new features including an arpeggiator. There isn’t a steep learning curve either, and there’s lots of helpful videos on YouTube. It’s a great portable music making machine, and if you bounce samples you can exceed the 4 track limit.

Super new groove, deep machine, fairly simple to grasp loads of hold shift and another key, but that is fine, has good features, sequencer is good, loads of modern stuff, probability triggers, or whatever its called, like electron, I had an octatrack, it was easier but bigger, more buttons, this is a good update for sure, had a mc 307 back in the day it was cool but I went computer for a long time, this is cooler

Just buy it endless hours of fun, great little tool, incredibly versatile. I bought this as a substitute for of an OP-1 TE, incredibly overpriced, I know the MC101 has not all the functionalities of the OP-1 but it covers the main ones at a quarter of the price. Buy it!

I own a number of machines in this category (Novation Circuit, Electribe, OctaTrack) and I'm really impressed. The huge library of presets makes up for lack of sound design features. The effects are superb, and so is the sequencer. There's lots of features you don't get in much more expensive bits of gear. Very happy

Bonjour, Je voulais étendre mes équipements, cet appareil fait amplement le job. Je m'en sers comme expander, ayant déja le fantom derniere génération, il n'y a pas de différence sur les sont de bases. On se plongeant dans le manuel, on peut aller beaucoup plus loin que mon utilisation. La dernière version du firmeware permet de pousser plus loin les limitations. J'avoue que l'utilisation peut être complexe au départ, mais l'investissement se justifie avec les efforts. Si on aime le son Roland, satisfaction garantie. Bonne acquisition.

Me gusta su tamaño, su ligeresa y su portabilidad,ya que lo puedes usar con pilas y puedes cargar samples, simplemente maravilloso y lo que no me gusta tanto que es de plástico y tal ves no aguanta una caída! Pero bien por roland!!

Es muy completo y muchos sonidos de buena calidad. La curva de aprendizaje es un poco elevada, pero merece la pena.

I bought it intending to drive it by one of my sequencers for its polyphonic ZeroCore synthesizer sound engine. To my surprise, it was very capable as a standalone groove box

Un dispositivo dalle potenzialità infinite. Anche se sulle prime alcuni meccanismi risultano un po' ostici una volta presa confidenza con le infinite possibilità di farla suonare e customizzare i suoni, lascia veramente sbalorditi. La quantità di suoni all'interno è enome e tutto suona con una qualità professionale. Sul web si trova abbondante documentazione scritta e video per predere il controllo di questo straordinario strumento che oltretutto è ultra portatile. TOP Roland
